Curried Chickpeas and Kale

By on March 1, 2015

 Curry is one of my favorite spices. It gives the simplest dishes a depth of flavor that makes you want more and more. If you haven’t tried to make a curry dish at home I highly recommend it. Remember, not all curry is spicy so you can still enjoy this amazing blend of spices if fiery food isn’t your thing.

Serves 4-5

 

 Ingredients

  • 1 bunch kale (chopped)
  • 30 oz chickpeas
  • 1 medium tomato (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 1 teaspoon mustard powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large lidded pan over medium high heat
  2. Once you see the oil to lightly bubble drop the mustard, cumin, cayenne and chili powder
  3. Let the spices toast for a couple minutes and then drop the onion and garlic
  4. Allow the onion to cook through (until they turn translucent, 5-10 minutes)
  5. Now add the chickpeas and stir until the chickpeas are covered with the spices
  6. Cook for about 10 minutes
  7. Add the kale and allow to cook for 5 more minutes or until the kale has wilted

 

You can serve as is or with some steamy jasmine rice
